With M-Print® PRO eCAD, Weidmüller offers a user-friendly add-on to EPLAN Electric P8 that provides intelligent, automated component marking. One of the beneficiaries is the automotive division of optoelectronics group Jenoptik.

Weidmüller’s Total Energy Monitoring approach allows energy and process data to be monitored and analysed from the network transfer point at plant level via the production lines and machinery through to individual machinery modules.

Just under a year separated the initial idea and the grid connection of Switzerland’s most powerful rooftop photovoltaic system. Weidmüller’s know-how and experience helped achieve this record-breaking time.

As the partner country of this year’s Hannover Messe, the USA joins the ranks of the leading industrial nations showcasing their products every year at the world’s largest trade fair for industrial technology. Weidmüller has been operating in North America for over 40 years and is looking forward to the dialogue in Hanover.

Industry 4.0 is leading to increasingly complex connection technology and a corresponding high demand for systematic and fast identification inside the panel. Weidmüller is responding to this with products such as MultiMark, the innovative concept for cost-effective marking.

With its expertise, comprehensive solutions and global presence, Weidmüller has been supporting renewable energy projects around the world for many years. Numerous requirements are already familiar and have already been met. Nevertheless, the still-growing markets continue to bring new perspectives and demand fitting solutions.

Weidmüller has a simple solution to the problem of complex signal connections in modular production systems with multiple protection classes: the flexible, integrated combination of IP 20 and IP 67 in u-remote.

Extreme heights, extreme distances and extreme environments – these are the challenges faced by the operators of wind power installations when performing maintenance work. Weidmüller is developing application-specific condition monitoring solutions in order to ensure that service and maintenance work can be planned in advance and initiated automatically.

These were Siemens’ requirements for the SINAMICS V90 servo drive system together with its connection system. As a practical specialist, Weidmüller knows exactly what is required for drive controls and scores with the BLZ 7.62IT plug-in connector at Siemens in Nanjing.

In China, demand in the field of elevator technology is shooting upwards, just like the buildings. Shanghai STEP Electric Corporation is a specialist in this segment. u-remote demonstrates its system benefits in robots developed especially for welding functions in elevator engineering.

Deserts in the north of Chile are one of the driest places on earth. Specifically adapted to their extreme environmental conditions, Weidmüller bundles high-quality components to provide innovative solutions.

With the European XFEL X-ray laser, a unique research facility is currently emerging in Hamburg, Germany, where extremely high-energy laser light has already made it possible to gain almost unprecendented insights into matter. Weidmüller is involved with the pioneering project thanks to its Industrial Connectivity solutions for DCS marshalling and data transmission.

The efficient use and self-sufficient generation of energy are two of the Winkelmann Group’s declared objectives. Weidmüller is supporting the medium-sized international business in setting up a flexible energy management system.

The economical use of resources is already of great importance in many companies. With intelligently networked hardware components, Weidmüller allows for all relevant energy data to be recorded in line with demand.

Thanks to its integrated display, the ACT20P Pro DCDC II analogue signal converter provides highest measurement accuracy and extremely simple configuration. Ideal conditions for its main area of application in the classical machinery sector.
